Today, modern Americans look back on ancestors who burned witches at the stake and who enslaved their brethren and shake their heads, unable to fully understand a culture that condoned such cruelty and harbored such lunacy.
A hundred years from now, historians and social scientists will look back on our own crazed obsession with guns and wonder why the madness lasted so long. They’ll shake their heads over a time in which a church or nursing home or community center could suddenly fall prey to a gunman armed with a determination to murder indiscriminately.
